Error loading svg [Android Only]

See original GitHub issue

Description

Getting System.NullReferenceException when trying to load svg images.

Steps to Reproduce

Put some svg files on an XAML page. I’m using this way:

<ff:SvgCachedImage
         Grid.Column="0"
         Source="{Binding Image}"
         VerticalOptions="Center"
         Aspect="AspectFit"
         HeightRequest="24"/>

The Image binding is a string like “image.svg” and the svg file is located on Resources/drawable folder on Android Project and have the BuildAction: AndroidResource

Expected Behavior

Image shown correctly

Actual Behavior

Error on console app:

Image loading failed: back.svg;(size=0x30,dip=True,type=SvgDataResolver)
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
